DHL Express, the world’s leading international express service provider, has been appointed as the Official Partner of the newly opened Kai Tak Sports Park (KTSP). The partnership demonstrates both organizations’ mutual commitment to bringing world-class mega events to Hong Kong, further strengthening the city’s position as Asia’s Event Capital.

Through this partnership, DHL will support KTSP in welcoming a variety of international, large-scale sports and entertainment events to Hong Kong. This collaboration enhances DHL’s brand visibility to audiences at home and abroad, contributing to the growth of Hong Kong’s mega events economy.

“We are delighted that DHL Express is our Official Partner. We look forward to enhancing the experience of our world-class mega events together. With KTSP as Hong Kong’s home venue, we are committed to bringing more international sports, cultural, and entertainment events to Hong Kong, further transforming the city into an event capital and creating new growth opportunities,” said Mr. John Sharkey, CEO, KTSP.

“DHL Express is honored to be the Official Partner of KTSP. This underscores our long-term commitment to Hong Kong’s development. In line with our purpose of ‘Connecting People, Improving Lives,’ we are excited to support KTSP in hosting world-class large-scale events. Through our shared values of innovation and mission to promote Hong Kong as a hub for live events, we will connect local and international audiences with their favorite sports teams, athletes, and artists. We believe we can better position Hong Kong as an attractive destination for the sports, cultural, arts and music lovers,” said Andy Chiang, Senior Vice President and Managing Director, DHL Express Hong Kong and Macau.

Officially opened on 1 March 2025, Kai Tak Sports Park is Hong Kong’s largest integrated sports and entertainment landmark.

One of the main events in 2025 for KTSP is the Coldplay’s Music Of The Spheres World Tour in April, for which DHL is the Official Logistics Partner. As Coldplay’s Official Logistics Partner, DHL is helping to reduce the tour’s transport emissions by, for example, leveraging Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF), which generates up to 85% less CO2 emissions compared to traditional jet fuel.

The partnership with KTSP reinforces DHL’s long-term commitment to the sports and entertainment industry at both local and global levels. With a long history of partnering with some of the world’s most prestigious events and teams – including Formula 1, Formula E and Manchester United – DHL connects people from all over the world, enabling fans to engage with their favorite sports teams and artists. Locally, DHL is the Official Partner of Hong Kong China Rugby, nurturing talented local athletes to help them realize their full potential on the international stage.

Officially opened on 1 March 2025, Kai Tak Sports Park is Hong Kong’s largest integrated sports and entertainment landmark. Featuring a multi-purpose stadium and a variety of sports and leisure facilities, the park supports the government’s goals of boosting tourism, promoting sports development, and hosting major sporting and entertainment events, thereby contributing to the city’s economic development and cultural exchange.
